GE IS200EHPAG1A Gate Pulse Amplifier Card

Here is the datasheet for the GE IS200EHPAG1A Gate Pulse Amplifier Card:

General Information

Product Model: IS200EHPAG1A.

Series: EX2100 Series.

Manufacturer: General Electric (GE).

Functional Overview

It is a key component in the excitation control system. Its main function is to directly regulate the silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) that are critical in the excitation process of synchronous generators.

Hardware Specifications

Connectors: There are 14 plug connectors and 3 motherboard connectors. The plug connectors include 8 double plugs, 4 quad plugs, and 2 six plugs, providing a variety of connection options. 

There are 4 standoffs on the upper right corner of the board for connecting optional daughter boards.

Product Features

Made with rugged construction and high-quality components, it can meet the rigorous requirements of modern industrial environments and ensure long-term durability and reliable performance.

It plays a key role in improving the efficiency and performance of industrial control systems by accurately and reliably amplifying the gate pulses of SCRs.

A similar model, the IS200EGPAG1A, is the exciter gate pulse amplifier board for the Mark VI series of GE Speedtronic™ turbine controls. 

It receives six gate commands from the ESEL board to control the gate firing of up to six SCRs on the bridge, and also provides interfaces for temperature monitoring, bridge airflow, and current conduction feedback. 

A row of LEDs along the edge of the front panel provides a visual display of current in the bridge, output firing, bridge temperature, cooling fan rotation, and alarm or fault conditions.
